The girl looks old fashioned. Her hair is sholder length. It is curley and red. The book looks like a prayer book.

I'm actually working on this particular painting now, and have been for quite some time, on and off.
Here's a link to a work in progress page I made for this painting on my website.

I figure another few weeks and it'll be completed...then I'll be able to continue with the Rembrandt; which is next to go back on the easel.
Rambling, sorry.
Hope this helped you out.

Red head origins that aren't Ireland?
Anyone know what countries - other than Ireland - produce natural redheads?
Answer
Today, red hair is most commonly found at the western fringes of Europe; it is associated particularly with the people of the British Isles (although Victorian era ethnographers claimed that the Udmurt people of the Volga were "the most red-headed men in the world").[6]
Redheads constitute approximately four percent of the European population.[7] Scotland has the highest proportion of redheads, as 13 percent of the population has red hair and approximately 40 percent carries the recessive redhead gene.[8] Ireland has the second highest percentage; as many as 10 percent of the Irish population have red, auburn, or strawberry blond hair.[9] It is thought that up to 46 percent of the Irish population carries the recessive redhead gene. Red hair reaches frequencies of up to 10 percent in Wales.[10] In England, the county of Cornwall, the far north, near the Scottish border, and the counties of Nottinghamshire and South Yorkshire also have significant proportions of redheads.[citation needed]
In the United States, anywhere from two to six percent of the population is estimated to have red hair. This would give the U.S. the largest population of redheads in the world, at 6 to 18 million, compared to approximately 650,000 in Scotland and 420,000 in Ireland.
Red or reddish-tinged hair is also found in other European populations particularly in the Nordic and Baltic countries as well as parts of the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Germany, Russia and South Slavic countries.
The Berber populations of northern Algeria and Morocco have occasional redheads.[11]
In Asia, darker or mixed tinges of red hair can be found sporadically from Northern India, northern Middle East (such as Iran, Lebanon and the countries of the Levant) and in rare instances in Japan[12] and the South Pacific. Red hair can be found amongst those of Iranian descent, such as the Pashtuns, Persians, Lurs & Nuristanis.
In Argentina people with red hair also make up a portion of the population, due to British and Irish immigration during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.[13]
